Micropoetry is a genre of poetic verse which is characterized by its extreme brevity. In other words, a micropoem is a short poem.Micropoetry is a collective term for a variety of different forms of short poetry. As a poetic artform, it doesn’t really have any rules. Although it does consists of certain forms of short poetry with fixed rules such as haiku, tanka, senryu and gogyohka. There are also no real character length limitations either. The limits are set by the medium with which they are being shared, and also that invisible line where micropoetry becomes a regular length poem. This is why the majority of poems on this site are less than 140 characters (twitter limit), with a maximum of 160 characters (mobile phone limit).

In memory of Pandora, a beautiful butterfly spreading its wings above the Earth's realm...

The life considered
Is one of sharing,
The life of sharing
Is worth the living.

This is an old one;

After death is not time to love my life
Use your breath now for love and not for strife
And so straighten my back
Put spring into my step.
Thus longer love and life the both are kept.
True love lasts not forever and a day
But may last a life and still not fade away.
